You may remember Miss Kittin from back in your Electroclash days with her track “Frank Sinatra”. Back when you had an asymmetrical haircut that was jet black, you wore lots of trashy neon pink, madonna bracelets, and shirts with the sleeves cut off. Oh wait… F*ck. That was me. Nevermind.
Point is — Kittin has been having a bit of resurgence in the techno world lately with tracks like “Where Is Kittin?” with Marc Houle and “Calling From The Stars” with Kanye collaborator Gesaffelstein. Last night, she appeared on Daniel Avery‘s RINSE FM Show and the new electronic/techno heavy mix is available for download and stream below! A great start to your NYE.

We had never heard of Brisbane, Australia’s River & Phoenix before, but The White Light Mixes must think he’s pretty quiche, as they’ve asked him to contribute a mix for their 89th edition of their mix which is available for free download now via their website. A little about the River & Phoenix‘s concept for the mix:

“I rooted the idea of this mix in ‘the ghost in the machine’. Are synthesizers and processors autonomous entities that act as one under a human touch, or are each unique to their own character regardless of the man at the helm? Is music made by the machine or the man.”
